Replying To Dheen: "I was mentioning the minors as we look down the road, Kevin O'Brien should be given until 2028 to build and then we should see those players start to come through." Some good news about training i hear some key players from Castletown back in the fold.

I would like to see a Leinster minor club championship to see how our winners fare out compared to other counties.
Reality is our record at minor level for the vast majority of this millennium is woeful.
Probably in the bottom 3 of Leinster teams that compete. We've only been to one final in the last 20 years where we were outclassed while the last 2 years have seen our nearest neighbours Offaly and Longford lift the trophy.
Would be interesting to see where a very good Shamrocks minor team this year would compare with this other winners in different counties.

I think the better team won yesterday, no complaints at all. That said, the decision to kick that 45 just on halftime, it dropped short and led to a 2 pointer on the turnover, that was ridiculous. Go short or put it dead. Not hindsight, just advice that anyone would give in that situation.

Croke Park expansion - 1 Like(s)
Replying To Kew: "According to the Irish Independent, the IRFU has forked out the seven-figure sum for a two-bedroom house on Havelock Square, which is beside the Aviva Stadium
You would think long term the Aviva will be expanded so croke will lose out on the 400k to rent croke park for a event" Aviva unlikely to be expanded that much. The IRFU may build a hotel at that end or something along those lines in the space.
Dont think expanding stadium is that necessary

Replying To Onion_Sack: "Well the good news is from next season it will be a competition proper with a cup presented to the winners. It will consist of the summer internationals where the 6 nations teams head down below. Then it'll be finished with the Autumn internationals where the teams from down under come here. It'll be a type of annual world cup and will be good that teams will play home and away.
If you think the games have been big and getting a lot of attention till now well it's going to bigger and better from next year and I, for one, am really looking forward to it!
Look it up, "The Nations Championship"" It'll be riveting alright.
